Welcome to my blog today! It's time for a new challenge at My Sheri Crafts and Sue has challenged us to create something for Christmas with at least 3 embellishments. I've made this super cute and easy card with the Cricut "Christmas Cards" cartridge.

It was so easy to make and I was able to use all scraps for it. My embellishments are 3 rhinestones, 1 ribbon and bordering with a silver gel pen. This was so fun I think I'm going to try some more with other papers!

Thanks for stopping by and now please head over to My Sheri Crafts and check out all the other great projects and join us!

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers, then inked up the edges and mounted it on a Spellbinder's oval. The card base is Cricut's "Folk Art Tulip Card" and I welded a square over all the fancy cuts to get a plain base. The papers are from Die Cuts With a View "Pocket Full of Posies" 6x6 pad. The bow is my first hand-tied triple bow!

The inside sentiment I made with the Write then Cut feature.

This scripture sentiment is from Just Rite's "Cast All Your Cares" stamp set.

I love how this one turned out and it's going to a good friend who is going through a rough patch right now.

Hello! It's Saturday! WooHoo!!! I hope you have plans for a great weekend. Part of what makes this weekend great is a new challenge at My Sheri Crafts! This week Glenda has challenged us with the theme of "Travel - Make a card/project with a mode of travel..car, truck, plane, etc" Not a travel theme, a MODE of travel. I used this great bicycle cut from Cricut and did a little inking:

I just have to say, I LOVE how this one turned out!!! The mat and tag are also Cricut cuts. The "Birthday Girl" stamp is from K Andrews "Take the Cake" set. The awesome papers are from K&CO.

I handmade the double bow from some old sheer ribbon in my stash and used a little bit of gold wire to attach the tag.
